Comments. The original description of
G
.
pseudonana
is based on an unspecified number of
syntypes
collected collected “sie wurde bei Rundhang in Målselv in Nord-Norwegen am
18. Juni 1937
an kleinen Scheibenpilzen zwischen Salix-Sträuchern am Ufer des Flusses in Gesellschaft zahlreicher
nana
gefunden. Einige weitere Stücke wurden in Anspülicht bei Rundhang und bei Moen in Målselv gefunden. Sie liegt ferner von Sel in Gudbrandsdal vor, wo ich ein
♀
am
6. Juni 1929
fand.,wie auch von Sorum in Vågå wo Munster ein Ơ im
Juli 1932
erbeutet hat” collected by Merkmalen (
Strand, 1939
). A male
syntype
found in the collection of NHMO is designated as
lectotype
is done for the better fixation of the identity of the name
Gyrophaena pseudonana
